Jules Koundé and Chelsea have practically sealed an agreement for the next five seasons Now we have to close with the third player in this transfer, Sevilla. The defender, concentrated with the French team for the Nations League matches, plays this Friday in Austria and on Monday he will go on vacation after receiving Croatia. very aware of the phone, because at any moment they will call you from London.
There are several reasons why the sale of Koundé has not yet closed. The first, because the Blues were in the process of changing hands between the Russian Roman Abramovich and the North American tycoon Todd Boehly. The second, still to be resolved, lies in the need for Sevilla to close at least one center back before getting rid of another defender more, after the sale of Diego Carlos to Aston Villa.
And the third depends on Real Madrid and Aurelien TchouaméniJules’ former partner and friend. Both soccer players could be seen recently together, in Miami, enjoying the two of their vacations. The circumstance occurs that the defender and the pivot, who coincided in the Girondins de Bordeaux, share like representative to Jonathan Kebe. And Kebe is currently in the process of finalizing the transfer of Tchounaméni from Monaco to Real Madrid.
So Koundé is also in that queue. As Tchouaméni also walks with Francia, It is not expected that the pivot’s march to the white club will be completed until at least next week. By then, most likely, Sevilla and Chelsea already have advanced negotiations which are expected to bear fruit at 60-65 million euros. Although Kebe, less busy, I still have a lot to say then.
